I love hot dip—it’s so delicious and satisfying—and with VitaClay it’s also super easy and quick to make!

I’ve made a few different types, from spinach-artichoke cheese dip to this hearty and filly Buffalo Chicken dip. With the chicken meat in there, the taste is amazing, and it’s so substantial it could almost be a meal on its own!

The best part is how easy and fast it is to make—just throw everything into the clay pot, stir, and this bad boy makes itself. You can whip it up quick and grab the whole cooker to take to a party or pot luck—serve it right out of the adorable clay pot!

Ingredients:

• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 cup hot sauce, (Frank’s Red Hot Sauce is great)
• 2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups cooked chicken (store-bought rotisserie chicken works best), shredded
• 1 cup blue cheese crumbles
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• Carrot and celery sticks, tortilla chips and/or pretzel chips, for dipping

Directions:

1. In a small pot over medium-high heat, melt butter. Whisk in hot sauce and set aside.
2. Add hot sauce-butter mixture, cream cheese, shredded chicken, blue cheese crumbles and mozzarella cheese to VitaClay pot.
3. Close, seal and cook on “soup” for 30 minutes
4. Serve with dippers alongside.
